Now one of the biggest names in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, elizabeth olsen He recalled his most embarrassing moment on the set of avengers endgame.
The amount of secrecy with each of Marvel’s projects is hard to explain with a straight face, and Olsen has told the story of how ridiculously over the top security is with larger projects like End of the game. in discussion with Varietyrevealed for End of the game they had the script available on a single iPad, in one room, with a security guard monitoring at all times.
Olsen said he was just trying to figure out what his scenes were, and also gave some insight into how much the actors knew about Tony Stark’s death. The funeral scene was labeled a wedding in the scripts given to the cast, but many of the characters only found out just before filming that they would be “killed” during Avengers: Infinity War thanks to them filming back to back.
“But we call it ‘The Wedding’ on the show. But I didn’t know I had been shot until we filmed it. They told us that day. We all went to the van where they had a bunch of equipment to show us the preview: Scarlett [Johansson]Chris [Hemsworth]Chadwick [Boseman]Sebastian [Stan]. We were all in this van and they said, “This is what’s happening. You will disappear. And we’re like, “OK.” It was shocking. I mean, we didn’t know. We think the movie ended differently.”
As for the instant sequence in infinity war, has called it his most embarrassing moment yet in the Marvel universe. After Thanos briefly reverses time to bring Vision back to life, he immediately rips the Mind Stone from her forehead in a brutal manner, right in front of Wanda.
“So, it’s very embarrassing to film that kind of thing, because, like, the world depends on you doing it. And we did some improvisation, which is difficult to improvise at that time. But it also felt good, because at that moment, Paul [Bettany] and I really had each other’s backs. It was one of the last things we filmed. I felt very comfortable with him as an actor if we had to improvise that rhythm a little bit. We were trying to find it, with the Russians leading us. And then once he finished, it was such a relief. And I just remember giggling the rest of the day, while Brolin had the helmet on. And I do not know. These movies are so dumb, but you have to act crazy to make them work.”
As Olsen points out, these movies are too silly and seem like chaos to work with all the secrecy, but overall they sound like an enjoyable experience.
